Farmer Smith has squash. So much so, that he brought us 40lbs peeled when we needed twenty. It’s funny in New England, how from December to May, there is nothing being served of a local nature, that hasn’t been frozen, canned or pickled. (and you KNOW that’s a nostalgic notion that really reverts back to my original statement.. “there is nothing…”)
And, come May, there’s what? Scallions? Ramps? (“What’s a ramp Patty?” “Well, I think they’re like scallions Jimmy”)
Come June, things heat up and there’s some berries. Then, no berries. But peaches. Then corn. Corn sticks around a little while, and tomatoes. And beets, peppers, green beans, some lettuces. Then, no tomatoes. And then there’s squash and pumpkins. Husks and hay. And that means…
If you visit farm stands in New England regularly, what finally becomes a bounty of color and variety in August, after that long, long, long wait…all that excitement, which so often causes you to buy things you may not even get around to eating, quite quickly gives way to squash. What was green goes golden. Red goes orange. Browns and tans. The only color in late September comes from Mums. And they’re everywhere. For a minute. Then, it’s pumpkins. And squash, spaghetti. And squash, acorn. And squash, butternut.
And then, our Chef’s get busy and our Squash Soup season begins! And THAT is a good thing. Year in and year out, our customer’s go nuts for Butternut Squash Soup. At Cobblestones, with maple, molasses and cinnamon creme fraiche. At moonstones, with pan drippings and the taste of Thanksgiving!
We will literally serve squash soup, on special for a month. Or more.
It works in September. It’s abundant in October. It warms in November. The longer we hold on to the lone standing locally grown bounty, the closer we are to getting “ramped up” for Spring!
The tunability and ready supply of these motors, combined with their compact and light(ish) construction has also made them a preferred selection for modern “Basic” competition. During October 2017, the Australian construction contractor Seymour Whyte was purchased by Vinci.| These latter actions can enhance construction costs significantly. They produce air and noise pollution and might impinge upon wetlands and rivers. Passenger airways load civilian passengers, their luggage (and generally their pets), snacks and drinks. Airports that handle passenger planes operated by companies similar to Southwest, Delta and United Airlines and cargo planes operated by FedEx, DHL and different similar entities belong to the business aviation class.
The construction process, which concerned over one hundred contractors, was an exemplary display of resilience, especially after the good Hanshin Earthquake in January 1995. Remarkably, the earthquake shifted the bridge’s towers but did not trigger important damage attributable to its anti-seismic design. During October 2017, the Australian construction contractor Seymour Whyte was purchased by Vinci.| These latter activities can increase construction costs significantly. Intersecting runways — Runways that cross one another are widespread at airports the place the prevailing winds can change all year long. Passenger airlines load civilian passengers, their luggage (and typically their pets), snacks and drinks. During the examine-in process, an agent must scan an e-ticket or manually enter passenger information, noting any upgrades (to first class, for example) or particular wants (wheelchairs, infants, lap kids).
